I got 6.19/quart for Mobil 1 Syn (not extended life, just the normal one) at my local Autozone. Is that good/bad? Where do you guys go for the best oil prices?

Thanks!

 

You can do better that $6+ per quart. I usually go to Costco or WalMart. It runs about $4-5 per quart (sold in 4 or 5 gallon jugs). If I'm at Walmart I get the Mobil 1 filter to go with the oil. Pep Boys usually has decent, but not great prices too.

 

I get Royal Purple oil for 6.72 at walmart

 

4 quart jug from autozone mobil 1 21.99......and ten extra quarts held down for reserve from all the 6 pack boxes =)

 

Amsoil....definitely. i use the extended life but don't go the full mileage. good for cold/hot weather

 

I get the 5 quart jug of Mobil-1 5w-20 at Walmart. I think it was $21, I can't remember. Your walmart sells mobil-1 filters? None of the ones around here do, I have to go to Autozone for the filter.

 

yea avs its like 23.99 too bad theres no walmarts by me.... is that the color from the old CL Type S?

 

23.99 for the filter?

 

21 bucks for mobil 1 at walmart!

 

When you guys say Mobil 1, I'm presuming you're talking Mobil 1 Syn (not the extended life) 5W-20, right?

 

Is there anyone who uses K&N oil filters? The HP-1010.

 

sometimes it's on sale for $19.xx

 

Five quart jug of Mobil 1 at Wally World is $20 here, everyday. Unfortunately, the only filters they have are Fram, so I go to Advance Auto Parts to pick up a Purolator PureOne filter (~$6).

 

If you want the good stuff..full synthetic, you need the "extended performance".


[QUOTE]Is there anyone who uses K&N oil filters? The HP-1010.

Yup, I do. Expensive, but probably worth it.

Either one is not available at the "fart-marts" around here, though...but I don't shop there anyway Not a downgrade to anyone who does, I just don't agree with their ethics. Just my opinion

 

I use the small hamp filter, the best thing since sliced bread
5 hamp oil filters $45
5 gallon (20 quarts) pail of royal purple $120

^ that is good for 5 oil changes if you aren't good at math

 

I don't wanna rehash the synthetic vs. dino oil debate but unless you're keeping it in the car for 15k, you're wasting your money on synthetics... these aren't turbo charged engines.

 

wasting money? I keep hearing this wasting money bit... synthetic is the same price as the dino stuff...

reffer to my prices above... I don't get the best prices, but I just go on ebay and buy from whoever ships for free

 

Your Walmart sells Royal Purple???

 

^ darksky
It would depend upon how you drive. Some hard drivers on the forum have found that the % of oil life that your MID displays goes down much faster than those that are more leisurely of pace. IMO, that would be the best judge, synthetic or not.

 

I'm not following that. I can't find syn. for less then 1.5x the price of a good dino.

 

This http://www.mobiloil.com/USA-English/...l_1_5W-20.aspx (non-extended performance) is full syntetic and is the one I *think* everyone's talking about getting at Wal-Mart.

 

Both of my local ones do.

 

I wish my walmart did you guys are getting it locally and paying only 30 cents per quart more than me

 

6 qt case of Mobil 1 SuperSyn at Costco $22

 

Walmarts around here handle both, and the extended performance is more expensive. From what I've read on the forums, Mobil 1 changed the structure of their full synthetic about a year ago. I do not remember what the specifics were, but what it came down to is if you want the better formula, you have to cough up the extra dough for the EP.

 

My Local Kragens in San Jose sells royal purple for 6.99 too. The nice thing is i have a coupon for 25% off fo the bottle really rings up 5.25 a bottle sometimes i can get it cheaper too.

 

Costco by me did have Mobile 1 SuperSyn ($29.99), however, they did not carry 5w-20. They only had 5w-30.

 

Seems like a store to store thing. I could not find it on the Costco web site. Got the Mobil 1-104 oil filter, an air filter at autozone & a set of Honda Pilot running boards for my daughter from Tim.

Busy Saturday comming up

BTW Tims price was very good at $442.95 shipped, no tax. The local Honda dealer wanted almost $700 + tax installed.

 

Thanks Bear! My wife has a Honda Pilot and may like some new running boards .

 

red sorry i wasnt paying attention tot he post the other day..... it was 21.99 for a gallon from wal mart 23.99 from autozone .... and the filters i got 40 of em in one shot from acura for 120

 

Interesting thing, the boards showed up today & many of the parts bags inside were marked Acura. Seems the Pilot & the Acura MDX use exactly the same running board.

 

Did the oil change on the TL & running board install on the Pilot.

The bigger Mobil 1-104 raised the refill requirement to 5 quarts to bring the oil level up on the dipstick.

The running boards are a factory product & were very easy to install with pre-drilled & taped holes in the body that were plastic plugged to keep them clean.

The job took a little over an hour to do even though there were about ten thousand bolts to cinch down thanks to air tools.

 

you should buy coupon or gift card from ebay then you will save even more.

 

hm i just got my first oil change not too long ago.. just went to Acura dealers and got em done.. i think it was 24.99

is that bad? should i be investing more? hmm. maybe i should ask what kind they use next time

 

$0.79/qt for Quaker State branded 5w-20 at the local Kragen auto parts store. They sell it by the case.

 

Mobil 1 from WALMART, they alway's have the lowest price on this stuff, always.....Guaranteed!

 

I've only changed oil once and the K&N was the same price as the Mobil1, so yea, I used it.

 

I think I just paid like $22 for 5 auarts of Mobil1 5W20 in a jug at Walmart.
